Turtlegram: A Ware man has been charged with misleading the police investigation into the slaying of four members of the Bermudez family in West Brookfield. Mathew Locke, 31, of Eddy Street, Ware, was arraigned Monday afternoon in Western Worcester District Court and ordered held on $10,000 cash bail. He is not charged with the killings of Sara Bermudez and her three children. The deaths of Ms. Bermudez, 38, and her children, Madison, 8, James, 6, and Michael, 2, have been ruled homicides. The four were found dead March 1 in their home at 10 Old Warren Road.

Court documents show that Mr. Locke was interviewed several times and told state police detectives from the Worcester district attorney’s office that he had been in contact with Moses Bermudez, Sara’s husband and the father of the three children, after the deaths.

“Locke stated that he had recently visited 10 Old Warren Road with an associate, Joshua Gagnon,” after the deaths, a police report states. “Locke stated that when he pulled into the driveway, Moses Bermudez was sitting in his truck. Locke told investigators that Moses stated that they should pay attention to the news in the coming days because anyone associated with MS-13 was going to get hurt and die.”

But state police said their investigation, which included interviews with Mr. Bermudez and Mr. Gagnon, showed Mr. Bermudez never made those statements, though the two men had been at the Bermudez residence within the past two weeks, court records show. MS-13 is a criminal gang that has grown beyond its Los Angeles roots.

At the arraignment in Western Worcester District Court before Judge Maura McCarthy, Assistant District Attorney Katie Wildgrube asked that Mr. Locke be held on $25,000 bail and cited what she said was a four-page record in Massachusetts and a criminal past in Maine, where he is on probation. Mr. Locke’s criminal record includes arson, larceny, violation of harassment orders, possession of a burglary tool and having drug paraphernalia, records and testimony show. Lawyer John Madaio, who was appointed by the court to represent Mr. Locke, said he doesn’t see his client as “a person of interest” in the homicide case.

Yes, you read that right – this mother fucker’s name is Matt Locke. As in….

Naturally he feels right at home in criminal court.

But seriously, this whole story is crazy and sneaky underreported. A family of four was butchered and burned in a town of 3,000 people. All three kids were under the age of 9. It happened almost a month ago and the only thing we know is they’re looking for a yellow gas can. That’s it.

A million people have messaged about this because the word around town is MS-13. The father was in California at the time of the murder and from what I understand he is not a suspect. Whenever someone mentions MS-13 I usually just ignore it though, because it’s become the new right wing dog whistle, like this one:

But the longer this goes on the longer I have to wonder. Three small children and a woman don’t get stabbed to death in their own home and then their bodies lit on fire in a normal murder. People are murdered for a reason. There’s no possible reason to want to murder three small children. Not unless there’s some perverse revenge motive to send a message. Something a gang like MS-13 would do.

So yea, maybe there’s something to this after all.

Meanwhile in Hatfield, the same cow town where Jo Ringer’s remains were found a month ago, a burnt body was found two weeks ago. And just like the the West Brookfield murders, the victim was hispanic. West Brookfield is basically Western MA, and Hatfield is in the heart of Western MA.

As for this moron:

I got all excited when I heard there was an arrest in this case. Especially since he’s from Ware. Plus, he’s got a long record and he’s pretty much exactly what I expected a murderer from Ware would look like. I mean, this was his Christmas card for crying out loud:

Merry Christmas. Ware style.

My money was on MS-13, so this would’ve been a real wild card if he did it. But as it turns out he’s just under arrest for lying to the cops about the Dad getting revenge on MS-13:

“Locke stated that when he pulled into the driveway, Moses Bermudez was sitting in his truck. Locke told investigators that Moses stated that they should pay attention to the news in the coming days because anyone associated with MS-13 was going to get hurt and die.”

I’m as confused as you are. Why would someone lie about the surviving father vowing revenge on MS-13? What does he have to gain from this? Or does he just like chaos? The again, nothing makes sense except MS-13. To me this whole thing just reeks of violent criminals trying to send a message. And who else would they be sending a message to except for Dad? I have no idea who or what he was mixed up in, but shit like this doesn’t just happen randomly in West Brookfield.

I wish we had more to offer you people, but your guess is as good as mine. If you have any information you wanna share with Turtleboy we are always interested. We just had to talk about it because it’s really bugging me that three kids and their Mom can be murdered like this and the people who did it are out there and there are apparently no leads. Fucked up.

Soros a dog republican dog whistle? Perhaps a little research is in order, just look up the organizations to which he donates and the causes those organizations fund. That’s a whistle even a tree stump can hear.

The Bermudez family was originally from El Salvador. They came to town via California, legally as far as we can tell. They may have been refugees from the MS-13 violence, which will reach out to any connected family member.

Whoever reads this: you have MS-13 gangs operating in your towns, the Police, FBI and Customs are near powerless to stop them as Massachusetts policy protects them from prosecution and deportation. Thank your Democrat lawmaker for these murders and those sure to follow.

I believe the Locke kid is related. The Locke’s were from Rutland and there were a lot of girls and maybe a boy or two. So he very well could be Moses cousin.
And I agree with the bait theory because authorities could have waited.

Much more violent. Cape Verdean seem to like to shoot each other a lit. MS-13s get in trouble with their central organization in El Salvador if their murders are not gruesome enough. Their fucken motto is “Kill, Rape, Control”. I seriously could empty several magazines into a geoup of them with absolutely no remorse. Other groups I could do that to: historical: Nazi SS members, KGB Current: Eastern European Organized Crime, Mexican cartels, MS-13.

It’s all run from El Salvador. That’s where the shot callers are located. Aside from viciously pursuing theses thugs here, our government must exert pressure on the govt of El Salvador. However, the El Salvadorian government – like the Mexican government – is run by these organizations. Much like the Russian government being highly influenced by the Russian mafia.

So everyone is clear look up his Facebook he is related. Moses is Matthew’s uncle. I have clear understanding about them because they are both related to me. I don’t condone Matthew’s past but I wanted to let people know how he ties into this.

Makes sense now.
So, Matthew wasn’t lying to the police then? I’m sure – as any other man or woman worth their salt would want – Moses wants revenge on the animals that killed his wife and kids. I know I would. No holds barred.
Sorry for the loss your family has endured. It’s horrific.

As I’ve said many times, Hispanics, welcomed in by the left 4 years ago from the Murder Triangle (Guatemala, El Salvador and the other fucking one) are going to make terrible things happen unless you do something. Do what you think would be reasonable.

“ Welcomed in by ‘ the left’ 4 years ago” ??? What does that even mean??? Are you suggesting that prior to 2014 there was no Hispanic immigration to the US? East Boston and Chelsea have been barrios fir well over 20 years and other areas of the country have had Hispanic only areas since forever! We do share a border after all. Damn you Fox News desciples are Fukin stupid. You really will believe anything they feed you. Sad, grow a brain!

He specifically said from the Murder Triangle (i.e., Central America) not just Hispanics in general. And he’s right. Remember a few years ago all the “kids” coming up from Central America via train through Mexico to our border. Mexico let them come on through because they knew what was really going on.

Thanks, but I wasn’t really paying attention to a subhuman faggot who couldn’t spell “disciple” anyway.
That’s the legacy of an urban Democrat school system. I feel pity for him, actually. I might throw a doggie bag of leftovers from my weekly steak feed at Smith and Wollensky’s on his front lawn. Poor liberal homosexual outcast. He probably needs a safe space because his father was embarrassed of him, unless he fellated other men as well.

I said MS-13 the second Insaw the story on the news. Not many out there that would murder a woman and 3 children that were not the father. And the brutal manner in which it was done and the fact the wife is from El salvador and the husband was an offshoreman. Perhaps they tried to get him to help with smuggling and when he refused, that is how they “punished” him. They are possibly tue worst human beings / Animals on earth. One of the reasons I am almost always carrying. We should be allowed to shoot those fuckers on sight! See AR does have a purpose for good and I have several 30 rd mags stuffed with .223 to put mine to good use.

I agree with your theory. Ms13 frequently threatens the lives of family members of those whom refuse to transport (mule) drugs over the border for them, this gang is also notorious for murdering young children. A few years ago they decapitated a 5 year old boy leaving his head on the families fence post, it takes a special type of evil to murder children. I had heard that the victims in West Brookfield owned a party supply store that coupled with their country of origin as well as the father’s recent trip to California at the time of the murders, makes it highly plausible that the family was murdered for refusing to take part in allowing this demonic gang to ship their poison into our country.

I’ve always felt West Brookfield was tied to Worcester and Ware was the eastern edge of W. Mass. Whatever.

I read the story on MassLive earlier today. I thought the same thing about MS-13. You think because W. Brookfield is palookaville that would stop MS-13. Like they would stop at the city limits?

Also, the fact that authorities are charging him right now is a bit strange. It’s not like they couldn’t do it next week or 6 months from now. The only thing this says is that this guy said MS-13. Maybe they are using him as bait? If he ends up dead and burned to a crisp are they going to say “Maybe he was right about MS-13”?
